Default EFI to CARB on an AUTO 5.0

Just wondering has anyone ran into any issues doing the conversion with an automatic tranny?

my chevy was a carb and auto, and used a tv cable...

most people switch to carb because they are running modified/drag cars and in that case they either have a 5 speed or a C4 (3 speed no O/D)

well I have to change the TV cable and the throttle cable. I was just wondering if anyone had any problems doing this. I bought both cables from Loker Dis.
